Hap - How the Daisy Was Named, Of all the flowers of the field the daisy is the most appropriately named. Probably not one person in a hundred understands the siguificance of this little flower. ITundreds and hundreds of years ago it got its name, and in all parts of the world the name means the same thing. The nature lover who named the daisy had in his study of the wild flower observed that it opened its eye with the opening of the day and closed it with the setting of the sun. So with the simplicity of the true artist' he called it the eye of the day. the days~ eye or, as we spell it today, the daisy.
